"I haven't really talked to Dani, so no. And as for the dance… I.. I can't dance really well. I pretty much only know how to fall. Other… Stuff? Oh. OH! Oh no, I don't think so." Skylar's face went bright red, and her hands shot up to her face to cover her burning cheeks.
"Also," She continued. "I don't have anything to wear. I probably won't be going, what with the dancing thing, too." She stuttered, finding any possible reason not to go.
Ace nudged Sky in the shoulder, "Peter's going." he winked.
(I'm gonna be gone for 2 hours, see ya L8er)

"Yeah… well… I don't know. I already told you, I can't go looking like this, and I. Can't. dance!" She whispered to him, embarrassed. "I can't go. I'll look ridiculous if I even try to dance." She looked down, playing with her hands.
Dani took a deep breath. "That's what I thought." She moved aside to let Blake read the file. "We've been looking for you for a long time Blake."
(@TiredOtter, create the file as you see fit.)
(Alright. Goodnight guys!)
"What're you talking about?" Blake squinted, reading his name in bold printed letters. It was a case file, a lot like the one he'd had on Ace. But what was terrifying was the single word underneath his name.
BLAKE THORFIN
STATUS: MISSING
"Missing?" He mumbled in disbelief. He continued to read, growing increasingly anxious.

Blake was silent. He didn't know what to think or what to say. Everything he'd ever known was a lie according to this. Commander Ryker had lied. The man he considered a father. Every kick, every slap, every punch thrown his way had always been justified. Until now at least. Blake's breathing become more labored and shallow. His body shook. He wasn't sure whether he was going to punch something or burst into tears. He hung his head low, his eyes watering and vision blurring. He brought up the attached pictures of his parents on the file, lightly tracing them with his finger. "Dani…" He called out for her quietly, his voice quavering. "Who am I?" He asked, struggling to hold back tears.
(1 more hour and @Nerd will be back… bored… where is @Lil-Owl??
(I'm pretty much done for the night since @Natasha went to sleep.)
(Yeah. Nerd will be back though and Skylar and ace are in a conversation so I gotta wait)
Ace laughed, "I look ten times more ridiculous on the dance floor."
“I seriously doubt that.” She smirked. “I could literally be standing there and fall. “
Macha took Skylar's hand, interrupting whatever retort Ace was about to say, "I would catch you."
“Thanks.” Skylar said, smiling. “But I still don’t have anything to wear. “ she looked st the floor dejectedly.
Macha winked, "I bet Dani has something for you."
“She’s too busy. I don’t wanna interrupt her. She’s with Blake , you know.” She smiled, remembering the previous conversation they had.
Ace butted in and wiggled his eyebrows, "Blake and Dani." Macha pushed his face away and he stumbled back onto the bed. She turned back towards Skylar, "I'm sure that there's something in our room."
“Ok.” She said annoyed.
Rolling her eyes she playfully nudged Macha. “So. You and Ace, eh?” She laughed
Macha immediately became uncomfortable, recalling their many kisses. "I don't know what you're talking about."
“Mhmmm. You were literally just holding hands and making googoo eyes at each other.” She smiled, watching Macha shift uncomfortably.
"We're….Friends." Macha turned back to look at Ace, he was burning red, "Yeah, just….Friends."
“Surrreee.” She said, her eyes darting between Macha and Ace.
"Friends." they nodded and turned away from Skylar's gaze. Ace broke the silence and mumbled quietly under his breath, "Friends that kiss."
“Aha! I heard that Ace. I knew you guys were together! You’re so cute.”
Macha touched her skin to make sure she wasn't blushing, but of course she knew she would never. Ace prodded Skylar's elbow, "So….Peter. And you. Together. Dating? Kissing? Other things?"
